Raga Guide

Raga Guide

The Raga Guide is a 1999 Nimbus Records compilation of 74 Hindustani ragas on four CDs. It includes a large textbook edited by Joep Bor (of the Rotterdam Conservatory of Music) with western-style transcriptions and raga information. Also, a nearly complete catalogue of a c. 1610 ragamala album painted in the Provincial Mughal style.

The featured artists are Vidyadhar Vyas (vocal), Shruti Sadolikar Katkar (vocal), Buddhadev Das Gupta (sarod), and Hariprasad Chaurasia (flute).
